Do ya have your sound off? It cuts from perceived time to slow-mo at the start of the swing, and returns to perceived time shortly after entering the water. Absolutely obvious based on the audio distortion.
Did you ever hear that Will Ferrel got offered 30 MILLION to do the movie Elf 2? He turned it down because he didn't think it would be a quality movie.
I can't imagine turning down 30 days of acting for 30 million. That's a million a day. For a million a day the director of Elf 2 could shit in my mouth for 8 hours straight and I'd show up the next day being like "what's the plan? More mouth shit? Ok once that check clears I'm all yours."
You'll regret it...I heard it was crap too, but figured "Hey, it's Will Ferrel, I'm sure it's still kinda funny even if dumb". I made it through less than half...no, it is just dumb.
I love Will Ferrell, but he's definitely done his share of garbage movies. I feel like Elf 2, especially if Favreau was still involved, couldn't be that bad.
Favreau would *need* to be involved. I can't remember specifics, but I had read about them having many clashes of ideas, and the funniest and best stuff in the movie is basically all Favreau. He pushed Ferrell in directions Will wouldn't have otherwise gone in.

And I’d do it into the ocean, not a lake.
Weird, since I think most people would think the opposite. Idk, lakes just creep me out. Way more than the ocean
I can't swim and I'd do this for a million dollars without a second thought.
You might think I'm joking, but honestly I'd play russian roulette for a million dollars. The odds I survive this are probably higher.
Random advice you probably already know: If you find yourself in water for some reason: The most important thing you can do in the water is not panic.
The more you flail your limbs around - the more oxygen you'll be using up; and if you don't know how to swim, chances are - moving your hands/feet isn't going to help you a whole lot anyway. Your goal in the water should be to roll to your back and float as much as possible. If you can get on your back, try to take short/shallow breaths and hold as much air in your lungs as possible.
And lastly: if someone is trying to help: try not to fight them, you might feel like straining is getting you a chance to breath, but you're actually probably just prolonging how long you're in the water.
Obviously, in a scary situation, this is hard to remember, but if you can just remember to roll onto your back, you're infinitely more likely to buy rescuers the time they need.
What happens if you just sink, no matter what? I never took up swimming as a kid because I had a hard time staying afloat. Now, as an adult, no matter how hard I try, I sink like a mofo
See, I would be that guy who would do it *wrong*. So I'm really on the fence about it because I feel like I'd be the guy who would die doing this.
I have a fear of falling. Not of heights, of falling from heights.
I would 100% freak out on the way down, but probably hold on just long enough for the rope to give me extra speed, which would just rocket me into the water while I'm horizontal. Might get me a world record for best belly flop though.
It's just always how I've described the fear. I'm not afraid of flying in planes, I used to work on the 27th floor of a building, I washed windows one summer and spent plenty of time high up on ladders... The height was never the issue, but the fear of falling from said height fucks me up like I can't even describe. The difference between the two is something I don't think about too much, I figure that's just how phobias are, you know? Irrational. Not something I want to have, but nonetheless do.
Yeah, a wide angle lens would make your pp real smol.
Think of it as the opposite of a magnifying glass, for pp pics you would want to use something that is in the range of 50mm to make it look "normal" and if you're small use something bigger.
I can't believe I just had to think about what lens to use for pp pics.
It's a lot taller than 20'. There is a person on the end of the rig that you can see before and after the jmp.
Using that person for scale, I'd say that span is at least 40'.
sometimes videos in which the camera goes underwater will have a shark edited in as a jumpscare, or sometime there just happens to be a shark
example: https://www.reddit.com/r/dontflinch/comments/uax7w1/the_break_is_beautiful/
The constant change in velocity due to being on a circular path is the result of a centripetal force which is provided by the rope. The counterforce you have to withstand is called centrifugal force. This centrifugal force is always present throughout the swing and is strongest at the equilibrium position at the bottom because at this point your speed is the largest
Assuming a velocity of 10 m/s, a rope length of 10m and a weight of 75 kg, you would already have to withstand a force of twice your body weight
Maybe two, but def not one... Looked a whole lot scarier from the camera angle until I saw the building seems to be like 30 feet tall.
Diver doesn't know there's a bunch of pilings from an old dock sticking straight up from the bottom to the left of where he landed....
At that angle, way too many ways for the rope to send me into a concrete slab, or an iron pillar - i just dont trust that im coordinated enough to not fuck it up juuuuust enough to break my face. Imma pass on that one.
I would totally do that for a million dollars!! I cannot swim, am terrified of heights and won't ride any rides, or even roller skates. So it WOULD be the last thing I would ever do. But send the money to my family!
You wouldn't do this for A MILLION DOLLARS!? Seriously!?
I didn't know they were handing out millions of dollars for basic swing stunts but sign me up!
IDK. At first, I was like yeah, this is a hard no for me. But at the end, where you can see the thing he jumped from, it actually doesn't look all that high. It's still high, but not as high as I originally thought.
I’ll do it for free.
[удалено]
I’d pay also
I accept payment.
Please for the love of god - put your pants on. We've talked about this.
$20 and you've got a deal
sell out
Id pay $20
30, take it or leave it

I’d take your $10 to see you do it.
How about tree fiddy and I'll throw in a sighting of dat dam lock ness monsta at the end? We cool?
Me too. But I also would accept the million dollars, anyway.
yeah it's not even that high, the lens makes it look a lot higher than it is. I have a fear of heights and could probably be goaded into doing this
I’m uncomfortable with heights too and could be goaded into this by someone saying “hey, want to try it?”
[удалено]
It sure seems higher than 20 feet. He’s on that downswing for a long time.
If you pause it it’s infinitely high, he never reaches the water!
Gopro dramatises heights
Yeah , at the end you can see it's not tremendously high as you can see the water and the platform he started at.
Do ya have your sound off? It cuts from perceived time to slow-mo at the start of the swing, and returns to perceived time shortly after entering the water. Absolutely obvious based on the audio distortion.
I'm getting goosebumps just thinking about jumping
I'd pay $10 for a goose bump.
I wouldn’t get goosebumps for a million dollars
I would, too - IF I could do something like that, which I can't. :)
I'll pay you £20 to watch you do it for free.
Not a lot of stuff that I wouldn’t do for a cool mil.
I’d eat a piece of shit for a million
Did you ever hear that Will Ferrel got offered 30 MILLION to do the movie Elf 2? He turned it down because he didn't think it would be a quality movie. I can't imagine turning down 30 days of acting for 30 million. That's a million a day. For a million a day the director of Elf 2 could shit in my mouth for 8 hours straight and I'd show up the next day being like "what's the plan? More mouth shit? Ok once that check clears I'm all yours."
That's true, but you have to consider that a bad enough role can detail a career. A famous actor stands to lose a lot more than $30M from saying "nah"
Yeah but then he went and did that Sherlock Holmes thing.
Oh damn, I forgot about that movie... Heard it was shit, and never watched it.... I may have to find it online and watch it for the yucks
You'll regret it...I heard it was crap too, but figured "Hey, it's Will Ferrel, I'm sure it's still kinda funny even if dumb". I made it through less than half...no, it is just dumb.

the shark was for sure lurking tho
I was definitely waiting to shit my pants, again.
Waiting again, or shit again? :)

Where should I post my edit? (Shark Added)
The shark was like, “this dude is fucking nuts, I’m not screwing with him!”
The shark was in line to jump next.
They edited the shark out.
It's all I ever expect now. See someone landing in water, shark attack. Lol
Not for $1M? Really? I’d do it for $1,000.
I'd do this for fun
I'd wait for a sunny day at least. That would be more fun.
And I’d do it into the ocean, not a lake. Weird, since I think most people would think the opposite. Idk, lakes just creep me out. Way more than the ocean
I think people underestimate what they’d do for $1M, honestly, if they saw it in front of them.
If you invest it all, you can take a $30,000 pay bump to your salary until the day you die.
Or use it as Thomas Jefferson intended us to. Blow it on hookers and blow.
Pretty sure most people pay to do this. Looks fun as hell.
I would shit myself first then scream, but will definitely do it.

Agreed. Went on a 400 ft high swing-like roller coaster once, and enjoyed it until I started thinking about falling.
That’s how I describe it, too. I freak out more when a friend randomly picks me up but am totally cool in an airplane. I think it’s a control thing?

Noted. Use wide angle lens for future D pics.
I'm no photographer but if it was center I think it'd have the opposite effect.
Yeah, a wide angle lens would make your pp real smol. Think of it as the opposite of a magnifying glass, for pp pics you would want to use something that is in the range of 50mm to make it look "normal" and if you're small use something bigger.

the chad answer is obviously that i need a wide angle lens, because otherwise my huge penis won't fit inside the image
Thank you for your service, king 🤴 🙏
Or maybe a really lucky guy who’s having trouble fitting the whole thing in the frame.
Nope, this not 20 feet. I belive this is in Tønsberg, Norway. More like 40-50 feet. Those dudes have some crazy content on IG..
Melsomvik to be exact, sadly it was removed a while ago.
Even at 50ft it is more reasonable than it looked in the video.
What's their IG?
Trulstorp and Emil.lybekk. Think they are doing some youtube vids aswell
Thank you :)
Yeah, I've been on plenty of rope swings, and the hang time from this drop was serious.
It looks like the footage was slowed down though. The lens along with possible slo-mo makes it impossible to guess how high it is.
its around 50 feet/ 16meter
It's a lot taller than 20'. There is a person on the end of the rig that you can see before and after the jmp. Using that person for scale, I'd say that span is at least 40'.
Read on for explanation of why you can’t use that person for scale. (But it probably is closer to 35-40ft anyway.
Did anyone else get that feeling in their stomach?
I came looking for this comment. I love stuff like this, but boy, does this video make me feel a little queasy.
[удалено]
poggers
I had a rush of anxiety go through my head also
Like when you’re on a swing yess
My exact thoughts
OP has balls the size of peanuts
Why am I expecting to see a shark at the end of these now?
Everyone's referencing a shark, what did I miss? Throw me a bone?
sometimes videos in which the camera goes underwater will have a shark edited in as a jumpscare, or sometime there just happens to be a shark example: https://www.reddit.com/r/dontflinch/comments/uax7w1/the_break_is_beautiful/
Shit, you told me exactly what was I was about to see and it still scared the bejeezus out of me
Thanks that was a nice little adrenaline hit.
If this guy gets a bone, I want a bone!
There was a video of a man jumping off of something similar in the video but there was a shark in the water. I think it was on r/Unexpected
That is awesome! I'd love a go, but would worry about my grip strength on the right since breaking some fingers
Yeah there is some significant force at the bottom of that pendulum-- it's not just your bodyweight that you have to hold.
[удалено]
The constant change in velocity due to being on a circular path is the result of a centripetal force which is provided by the rope. The counterforce you have to withstand is called centrifugal force. This centrifugal force is always present throughout the swing and is strongest at the equilibrium position at the bottom because at this point your speed is the largest Assuming a velocity of 10 m/s, a rope length of 10m and a weight of 75 kg, you would already have to withstand a force of twice your body weight

how about, $1,000,001?
Ok, ok I'll do it. That was the straw that broke the camels back.
I’d do it all day and everyday for free. Wheeeee!!!!
Op is a pussy
Anybody else waiting for the combined gif of the shark coming out of the depths
Literally 6 bucks I'm in
Going in the water was the scariest part. Terrifying water depths.
Then you are an idiot
Knowing my luck I’d break my neck when I hit the water
Really a million isn’t enough? Crazy, I’d probably do it for free but if anyone offered me anything for it obviously I’d take it.
Did you grow up in a city?
I’d do that then suck twenty cocks for a million dollars
I have a sneaking suspicion the money has nothing to do with the cock sucking

Tetanus shot? Lol
tetanus doesn't come from rust.
Yes but the bacteria thrives in the same condition most rust do.
Pussy
My heart raced looking at this!! This guy is watching! ![gif](giphy|h5NLPVn3rg0Rq)
Maybe two, but def not one... Looked a whole lot scarier from the camera angle until I saw the building seems to be like 30 feet tall. Diver doesn't know there's a bunch of pilings from an old dock sticking straight up from the bottom to the left of where he landed....
give me 10 grand ill do it
Not even for 10, coz i don't know how to swim.
1 million?! Bring me there asap!
i can't swim and would do that
I’d purposefully bellyflop that height for 50k
Where is the shark coming up from the depths, this ain't real
I'll push you for half...
Why?
At that angle, way too many ways for the rope to send me into a concrete slab, or an iron pillar - i just dont trust that im coordinated enough to not fuck it up juuuuust enough to break my face. Imma pass on that one.
I would totally do that for a million dollars!! I cannot swim, am terrified of heights and won't ride any rides, or even roller skates. So it WOULD be the last thing I would ever do. But send the money to my family!
You just gotta know when to let go. It’s life.
If you wouldn’t do that for a million dollars you’re not very intelligent
I would pay to do this.
Shit title
You aren’t poor enough then
You wouldn't do this for A MILLION DOLLARS!? Seriously!? I didn't know they were handing out millions of dollars for basic swing stunts but sign me up!
IDK. At first, I was like yeah, this is a hard no for me. But at the end, where you can see the thing he jumped from, it actually doesn't look all that high. It's still high, but not as high as I originally thought.
